18、he definitions of the most important natural fibres according to their specific constitution or origin.An alphabetical list of names in common use is provided, together with the corresponding standardized denominations.2 Types of fibres2.1 Natural fibresNatural fibres are fibres which occur in natur
19、e; they can be categorized according to their origin into animal, vegetable and mineral fibres.2.2 Animal fibresThese include in particular: fibres from silk glands, secreted by some insects, perticularly by larvae of the lepidopter order, in the form of two filaments of fibroin cemented together by
20、 sericin; fibres secreted by some molluscs; fibres from hair follicles, with a multicellular structure, composed of keratin, forming the fleece, the coat, the mane or the tail of certain animals.2.3 Vegetable fibresThese include in particular: fibres from seeds: single-cell structure, generated by t
21、he epidermal cells of the seed, almost entirely constituted of cellulose; fibres from bast: composite fibres obtained from the bast of certain plants, mainly constituted of cellulose and accompanied with incrusting and intercellular materials (pectin bodies, hemicellulose, lignin); fibres from leaf:
22、 composite fibres obtained from leaves, constituted chiefly of cellulose plus incrusting and intercellular materials, consisting of lignin and hemicelluloses; fibres from fruit: composite fibres obtained from fruit, constituted chiefly of cellulose plus incrusting and intercellular materials, consis
23、ting of lignin and hemicelluloses.2.4 Mineral fibresMineral fibres are obtained from rocks of fibrous structure, constituted principally of silicates.DIN EN ISO 6938:2015-01 EN ISO 6938:2014 (E) 4 3 Fibre generic names3.1 Animal fibres3.1.1 Fibres from silk glandsNumber Generic nameaDefinition3.1.1.
